Headline News

The terrorist attack on Northwest airlines flight 253 from Amsterdam to Detroit by Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab will likely be a hot topic around water coolers as employees return to work after the holidays.
The attack occurred on Christmas Day over Detroit 20 minutes prior to landing. Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab tried to light explosives, causing a fire on the plane. The fire was extinguished as passengers brought the terrorist under restraint. The terrorist has admitted links to al Qaeda, an middle-eastern terrorist organization linked to radical extremist Islamics.
As the conversations take place in the workplace it is possible that frustration over delayed flights by employees, increased safety fears, or anti-Nigerian and anti-Islamic feelings are fueled.
Here are some important facts to remember,
       Detroit has large populations of Nigerians and Muslims.
       Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab is not a representative of the Nigerian people or Muslims.
       The Nigerian government is a democracy with freely elected officials.
       All ethnic and religious groups have radicals that are far out of mainstream. People within the groups are typically as offended or more offended than people outside the group.
       Nigeria is two-and-a-half times the size of California and is comprised of 36 states and one territory.
       Nigerians are proud of their heritage and generally prefer to be referred to as "Africans", not "African-Americans".
       Although much of Nigeria is undeveloped, it is the 9th largest oil producer with modern urban areas. 
 
The White House said it believed it was an attempted act of terrorism and stricter security measures were quickly imposed on airline travel. Dutch anti-terrorism authorities said the U.S. has asked all airlines to take extra precautions on flights worldwide that are bound for the United States.
The incident was reminiscent of Richard Reid, who tried to destroy a trans-Atlantic flight in 2001 with explosives hidden in his shoes, but was subdued by other passengers.
